Description
- The present invention relates to a process for producing N-acetylneuraminate lyase (hereinafter referred to as "NA lyase") using a microorganism constructed by recombinant DNA techniques.
- NA lyase (EC 4.1.3.3) is the enzyme which catalyzes the conversion reaction of N-acetylneuraminate into N-acetyl-D-mannosamine and pyruvate.
- It is known that the enzyme is used for the determination of a substance containing sialic acid in serum for diagnostic purposes. It is also known that the enzyme exists in animal tissue, pathogenic microorganisms such as Clostridium perfringens, Vibrio cholerae,etc. and various nonpathogenic microorganisms. Only a little amount of the enzyme is produced by culturing these microorganisms in a medium which is usually used in an enzyme production.
- It has been reported that the yield of the enzyme was enhanced by adding N-acetylneuraminate to the medium (Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 54153/81 and 51751/81).
- The utilization of N-acetylneuraminate is economically disadvantageous and it is demanded to develop the process for producing NA lyase without utilization of N-acetylneuraminate.
- As a result of studies made to develop such a process, it has been found that an NA lyase producing microorganism constructed by incorporating a hybrid plasmid into a recipient of the genus Escherichia produces NA lyase in a high yield in a medium which does not contain N-acetylneuraminate.
- In accordance with the present invention, NA lyase is produced by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia and having an ability to produce NA lyase and which is obtained by incorporating into a host strain of the genus Escherichia a hybrid plasmid wherein a DNA fragment with genetic information controlling NA lyase production which is derived from a donor strain is inserted.
- As the DNA-donor strain used to construct the NA lyase producer of the present invention, any microorganism may be used so long as it belongs to the genus Escherichia and possesses genetic information controlling NA lyase production. Strains having a higher productivity of NA lyase are preferably used as the DNA-donor.
- The DNA with genetic information controlling NA lyase production (hereinafter referred to as "chromosomal DNA") is extracted from the DNA donor in a well known manner, for example, phenol method described in Biochim. Biophys. Acta, Vol. 72, pp 619 - 629 (1963).
- The thus obtained DNA is inserted into a vector DNA to prepare a hybrid DNA. The insertion of a chromosomal DNA into the vector DNA can be attained according to the usual manner.
- The chromosomal DNA and the vector DNA is treated with a restriction endonuclease to prepare a chromosomal DNA fragment and a cleaved vector DNA and the mixture is treated with DNA ligase to obtain the hybrid DNA.
- As the vector DNA, a conventional vector such as pBR322, Co1E1, pSC101, pACYC177, pCR1, R6K or λ-phage, or their derivatives can be employed. Plasmid pBR322 is preferably used.
- Examples of the restriction endonuclease are HindIII, BamHI, EcoRI, PstI and SalI, among which HindIII is preferable. As the DNA ligase, DNA ligase derived from T4 phage may be preferably employed.
- The hybrid DNA thus obtained can be incorporated into a microorganism of the genus Escherichia having no ability to produce NA lyase (hereinafter referred to as "NA lyase-non-producing strain") by conventional transformation techniques such as calcium ion treatment method described in J. Bacteriol., Vol. 119, pp 1072-1074 (1974).
- The NA lyase-non-producing strain can be obtained by the following method. A wild strain of the genus Escherichia such as Escherichia coli C600-SF8 is subjected to mutation treatment to obtain a mutant having no ability to utilize N-acetylneuraminate. The mutation is carried out by a conventional method, for example, treatment with mutagens such as N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine.
- The mutant having no ability to utilize N-acetylneuraminate can be obtained by culturing the microbial cells obtained by mutation treatment in a glucose minimal medium comprising 2 g/l glucose, 1 g/l (NH₄)₂SO₄, 7 g/l K₂HPO₄, 3 g/l KH₂PO₄, 0.1 g/l MgSO₄·7H₂O, 5 mg/l thiamine, 0.2 mM threonine, 0.2 mM leucine and 15 g/l agar. The formed colonies are replicated in the glucose minimal medium and N-acetylneuraminate minimal medium comprising 2 g/l N-acetylneuraminate, 1 g/l (NH₄)₂SO₄ 7 g/l K₂HPO₄ 3 g/l KH₂PO₄, 0.1 g/l MgSO₄·7H₂O, 5 mg/l thiamine, 0.2 mM threonine, 0.2 mM leucine and 15 g/l agar. The colonies which can grow on the glucose minimal medium and cannot grow on the N-acetylneuraminate minimal medium are picked up to obtain NA lyase-non-producing strain. An example of such strain is Escherichia coli 0-2.
- The screening method of the desired transformant is selected according to the kind of the restriction endonuclease used for preparing the hybrid DNA or the kind of the vector DNA utilized. When HindIII and plasmid pBR322 are used, the desired transformant is obtained by culturing the strain in the N-acetylneuraminate minimal medium containing ampicillin and picking up the formed colonies having NA lyase activity. An example of the microorganism containing the hybrid DNA is Escherichia coli H3-4 FERM BP-5l3.
- The strain was deposited on March 24, 1984 with the Fermentation Research Institute, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology located at 1-3, Higashi 1 chome, Yatabe-machi, Tsukuba-gun, Ibaraki-ken 305, JAPAN under the Budapest Treaty.
- The method for culturing the NA lyase producing strains thus obtained is conventional, and is similar to the known method for producing enzymes.
- As the medium, either a synthetic or natural medium may be used so long as it contains an appropriate carbon source, nitrogen source and inorganic materials.
- As the carbon source, carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, fructose, starch, starch hydrolyzate, molasses, etc. may be used in a concentration of 5-50 g/l.
- As the nitrogen source, organic and inorganic ammonium salts such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium carbonate, ammonium acetate, etc., nitrogen containing organic substances such as peptone, yeast extract, corn steep liquor and casein hydrolyzate, etc. may be used in a concentration of 5 - 20 g/l.
- As the inorganic materials, potassium monohydrogen phosphate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, etc. may be used in a concentration of 0.05-5 g/l.
- Culturing is carried out under aerobic conditions, for example, with shaking or stirring at a temperature of 25 - 37°C for 16 - 48 hours.
- After completion of the culturing, the culture liquor is subjected to filtration, decantation, centrifugation, etc. to obtain microbial cells. The microbial cells are disrupted by appropriate means such as ultrasonic disintegration, grinding, etc. to obtain a cell extract and the extract is subjected to centrifugation to obtain a supernatant. Then the supernatant is subjected to conventional purification methods such as salting-out, dialysis, chromatography using ion exchange cellulose, Sephadex, gel filtration and the like to obtain the purified enzyme.
